When His Eyes Opened (Elliott and Avery) novel Chapter 682

Chapter 682

Elliot strode over to the side of the bed, then loomed over Avery and said, “I can settle my own needs.”

Avery was instantly relieved and the tightness in her chest loosened.

“Why won’t you go home, then?”

Two people squeezed together in bed would be less comfortable than sleeping46 alone.

“I don’t feel like it.” Elliot sat down on the edge of the bed as his eyes landed on Avery’s body. 

“This lesson was very memorable.”

This kind of thing would not have happened if he knew what every part of her body looked 34 like.

Avery did not guess his thoughts, so she said calmly, “It’s in the past.”

“I want to truly learn my lesson, though.” Elliot’s eyes darkened as he said, “Ben told me that the woman in the video said I couldn’t satisfy you. I should’ve realized it then. When have I never satisfied you? When have I never given into your needs? I was careless.”

“You’re not careless. It’s just your vulnerable masculine pride at work,” Avery mocked. 

“So what if I said you can’t satisfy me?”

Elliot gazed at her provocative little face, and he was calm as he said, “You’re right. It was my pride at work. In order to prevent anything similar from happening again, I need to familiarize myself with your body.”

Avery was taken aback.She felt like she was on fire and she fidgeted nervously.

Elliot held her leg down and said, “Don’t move. Our son will roll around every time you move.”

Avery was silent.

“Is my request going too far?” he said as his hand pulled up her nightgown. 

“Even so, you’ll just have to bear with it. I also put up with your unreasonable request.”

Avery could tell that he was doing this on purpose.

He was upset that she wanted to take away the custody of their child, so he was doing this to humiliate her.

“Ha! Does he think he can humiliate me into breaking down?” she thought.

Avery lay down peacefully, then picked up her phone and saw the text messages from Tammy.

Tammy: [He can’t do anything to do since you’re in your third trimester! Hahaha!]

Avery sneakily took a photo of Elliot at that moment and sent it to Tammy.

“It’s none of your business.” Avery put her phone down, then snuggled into the covers and snapped, “Are you done looking?”

Elliot did not really look at the other parts of her body because his eyes were drawn to her belly.

In his memory, her belly was flat.

However, now that it was protruding so much with the baby, he wondered if she was in pain.

“It’s pretty tough being pregnant, isn’t it?” he asked.

“You want to give it a try?” Avery teased as she watched his handsome face. 

“How about you make an investment for me to do some research and see if men can end up being pregnant in the future.”

“Do you have to take a jab at me?” Elliot frowned.

“Not really. I wouldn’t do that if you don’t talk.”

Elliot reached out and turned off the lights.

The room instantly fell into darkness.

Avery’s body stiffened, and the earlier wilful arrogance vanished from her voice as she said, ”Can’t you give me a heads up before turning the lights off?”
